1-800-Awnings Is the National Master Dealer for Eastern Awning Systems — The Sunflexx & Sunscape Are Now Available Nationwide
1-800-Awnings Is the National Master Dealer for Eastern Awning Systems
We are proud to announce that 1-800-Awnings is the National Master Dealer for Eastern Awning Systems — one of America's most respected manufacturers of retractable awnings. That means when you shop with us, you are getting direct access to two of the finest retractable awning systems ever built in the United States: the Sunflexx® and the Sunscape®.
Eastern Awning Systems has been manufacturing premium retractable awnings from their facility in Watertown, Connecticut for decades. Every single awning they produce is 100% American made — designed, engineered, and assembled right here in the USA. As their National Master Dealer, 1-800-Awnings brings that same quality directly to homeowners and businesses from coast to coast.
Why Eastern Awning Systems? Why American Made Matters.
In a market flooded with imported awnings built to the lowest possible cost, Eastern Awning Systems stands apart. Their retractable awning systems are engineered with certified wind load ratings, powder-coated aluminum components, and stainless steel hardware and arm cables — materials chosen for longevity, not just to hit a price point.
When you buy an Eastern awning through 1-800-Awnings, you are investing in a system that was designed by American engineers, built by American workers, and backed by the kind of warranty that only a manufacturer confident in their product will offer. That is the Eastern Awning difference — and it is one reason we chose them as our exclusive manufacturing partner.
The Sunflexx® — The Strongest Retractable Awning on the Market
If you want the absolute best retractable awning money can buy, the Sunflexx® is it. Eastern Awning Systems describes it as "the most ultimate state-of-the-art awning system on the market today" — and after seeing what goes into building one, we agree completely.
What sets the Sunflexx apart from every other retractable awning on the market is its patented Urethane Compression Shoulder Joint. This is the engineering breakthrough that makes the Sunflexx dramatically stronger than anything else available. Here is how it works: instead of a rigid connection that can snap or bend under pressure, the Sunflexx arm joint is designed to flex as force builds from either direction — whether that pressure is coming from wind pushing up under the fabric or weight pressing down. The arm gives just enough to absorb the load, then springs back into position.
Sunflexx Strength: The Numbers Behind the Engineering
The Sunflexx is not just strong because of clever design — the components inside are built to extraordinary specifications. The 12-foot projection arm houses two 1-inch diameter high-tensile springs with a tensile strength of 240,000 PSI, generating a cable force exceeding 700 lbs. The arm cables themselves are 304 stainless steel 7x19 strand with a breaking strength of 2,400 lbs. These are not the flimsy cables found in budget imports — this is the same caliber of hardware used in demanding structural applications.
The result is a retractable awning system that can withstand greater upward and downward force from unexpected inclement weather than any other fabric patio awning on the market. That strength is why Eastern Awning Systems backs the Sunflexx with the industry's most comprehensive 15-year frame warranty. They build it to last, and they stand behind it.
